Macau as An Ideal
Destination

Macau is a uniquely attractive
destination for domestic and international MICE organizers.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site
with more than 20 historical locations has a rich cultural heritage for
visitors to explore; and is also a food lovers’ paradise designated as a UNESCO
city of gastronomy.

Benefiting from favorable
Macau SAR policies encouraging MICE events and advanced infrastructure
development, Macau now has an unprecedented opportunity to develop its MICE
industry.


Transportation and Advanced Infrastructure

Most
notable among vastly-improved transportation links is the newly-opened Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge. The world’s longest sea-crossing dramatically
enhances Macau’s connectivity with the region’s
Greater Bay Area.
‘The age of the bridge’ heralds a new era for placing Macau on the
world’s MICE industry map.

Macau is also seamlessly
connected by direct flights to major cities in Greater China and over 200
cities worldwide via 3 major international airports, including Macau
International Airport, Hong Kong International Airport and Zhuhai International
Airport with over 94 million passengers and approximately 600,000 aircrafts
movements in 2018.
